I found beefy tie rod adjusting sleeves on ebay a little while ago and now the guy is selling more! they are made from high tensile instead of aluminum which I trust steel alot more, and they are powder coated. mine worked perfectly and I was amazed on how much handling was improved ( maybe thats because the wheels aligned better now, they where just eye balled before but still). If anyone wants to check them out here is the link
